Quick Answer
What is Alpaca?
Alpaca is a rigid, wood-look SPC floor built around a soft greige-beige color, with a thick, high-traffic wear layer for a low-maintenance, practical space.
Is it waterproof?
Yes — 100% waterproof. Everyday spills, pet accidents, and mop water won't swell, warp, or delaminate the planks when wiped up promptly; standing water should still be cleaned up quickly. Not approved for outdoor installation; test the subfloor for moisture before installing.
How durable is it, and what traffic can it take?
Alpaca is protected by a 20 mil wear layer — measuring about 0.50 mm — well suited to heavy residential use and many light-commercial applications, with excellent protection against everyday scratches, scuffs, and abrasion. It sits at the thicker, harder-wearing end of the range.
Will it hold up to daily life?
Alpaca's 20 mil wear layer and UV-cured ceramic bead (EnduraPro) finish are rated for pet claws, chair legs, dragged furniture, and heavy daily traffic — the scratch resistance that matters in kitchens, entryways, and pet households where foot and paw traffic concentrates.
What does the plank surface look like?
The plank surface is a smooth printed wood-look with an open, flowing cathedral grain and a smooth, quiet figure that runs the length of the board. A few faint pin knots and a little subtle striping appear at a sparse density, scattering lightly rather than crowding any board, so the run stays calm and even. The top is sealed with a UV-cured ceramic-bead finish that resists scratches and stains and needs no waxing.
Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?
There's no separate underlayment to buy and no pad to choose. Alpaca's factory-attached IXPE antimicrobial sound-deadening acoustic pad comes bonded to every plank and dampens footfall noise throughout the home — one less material decision and one less install step.
Is it safe for indoor air?
Yes — Alpaca carries FloorScore, GREENGUARD Gold certifications, independently tested for low chemical emissions. That matters most for households with allergies, asthma, or young children.
Will this color work in my room?
Alpaca leans warm but stays pale and understated, a greige beige that keeps a soft, neutral footing in a room. Because the tone is light and the figure is quiet, it works as a calm backdrop that stays in the background of your furniture and pairs easily with cream and oatmeal upholstery, warm wood-tone walls, and soft taupe surfaces. Under soft daylight the warm cast keeps the greige from reading cold; under warmer interior light it nudges a touch creamier, so Alpaca holds its serene, soft-and-minimal feel through the day.

Overview
Alpaca is a soft greige beige with a gentle warm cast, a wood-look print laid over a stone-polymer core. The print reads quiet and minimal: an open, flowing cathedral grain with a smooth, even figure, a few faint pin knots, and subtle striping that keeps each board calm rather than busy. The planks click together as a glueless floating floor and wear a UV-cured ceramic-bead finish that resists scratches and stains, so the pale warm tone of Alpaca stays consistent underfoot. In this warm-minimalist living room the floor sits inside a layered neutral palette, paired with a curved cream sofa, an accent armchair, a sculptural coffee table, and warm wood-tone wall paneling, with a single thin branch in a vase as the only accent. That restrained, soft-and-minimal mood suits a serene living room, a calm bedroom, or a pared-back home office where you want the floor to settle quietly into the room instead of leading it.
